I've built my first PC over a year ago, and until recently, everything was working just fine. A few days back, it wouldn't turn on at all. I managed to get it working again by flipping the power switch on the back off for a while, but the problem has returned. I'm wondering if it could be an issue with the power supply unit (PSU) and if I should replace it with the same model. Also, is there any good guide on how to replace a PSU?

First off, you might want to check if anything has come loose. It could be worth inspecting the power cable from the PSU to make sure it's properly connected. Sometimes a loose connection can cause these kinds of issues.
Have you tried plugging it directly into the wall instead of a surge protector or APC? I’ve seen cases where the protector might interfere. Also, if it's still not turning on after switching the power off for a bit, that’s a sign it might be the PSU.
